trays

domino, feb. 2009

i'm looking to re-create this display in our bathroom. i've been looking for a small enough tray, but haven't had much luck.

this tray is too bulky.

this tray is too unstable.

and this tray is perfectly unsuited to my project, but beautiful!

modern salonistes

making homes into art galleries-- literally!

interesting concept, even if you don't plan to open your home to perfect strangers.

trend: rolled cuff blazers

i'm not usually on trend, and i might be late on this one, but i love the look of rolled cuffs on a blazer/tuxedo jacket. i bought one yesterday, thinking of wearing it to my company party.

love these artist figures and miniature paintings (the original paintings are all in the art institute of chicago's collection).

julep cup

lovely as a vase. equally classy as a toothbrush holder. (and don't overlook the soap dish!)

molding

i love how the pale blue makes the books POP! and i love the use of hallway space as a library. and the diamond tile flooring. fantastic!

neutrals + pink = perfection

i had this picture saved in three different places on my computer... i would absolutely copy this in my own bedroom, but i can't subject my husband to something this feminine.

burlap table runners

i would have used these for my wedding, had i discovered them sooner!
